Making salts All Must: Be able to describe how to neutralise an acid Most Must: Write a word equation for neutralisation Some Must: Explain what salt is produced with hydrochloric acid
What is this and why is it used? Key Words Neutralisation Salt Copper sulphate What is this and why is it used?
acid + alkali salt + water Neutralisation What happens when you add a acid to an alkali? acid + alkali salt + water Acids react with alkalis to produce two neutral products.
A neutralisation reaction is where an acid reacts with a base to produce a neutral solution of a salt and water. sodium hydroxide pH 14 neutralisation sodium chloride pH 7 hydrochloric acid pH 1 1 2 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 Increasingly acid Increasingly alkali
Common Acids are: Name of acid Formula Sulphuric acid Hydrochloric Nitric acid Ethanoic (vinegar) H2SO4 HCl HNO3 CH3COOH
Common alkalis are: Name of alkali Formula Sodium Hydroxide Potassium Oxide Calcium Carbonates Ammonium Hydroxide NaOH KO CaO3 NH4OH
Sulphuric acid Nitric acid Sulphates Nitrates Hydrochloric acid Salts Sulphuric acid Nitric acid Sulphates Nitrates Hydrochloric acid Chlorides
All these are alkalis – that will neutralise an acid Type of compound Contain React with acids to give Metal Hydroxides Metal Oxides Metal Carbonates OH- water + a salt O2- water + a salt CO32- water + a salt + CO2
Naming salts 1 The first part of the name of the salt comes from the first name of the base (alkali) So Ammonium hydroxide gives ammonium ………… Magnesium oxide gives magnesium …………... 2 The acid gives the last part of the name of the salt. So Sulphuric acid make sulphates Nitric acid makes nitrates Hydrochloric acid makes chlorides Eg. Sodium hydroxide + nitric acid forms: Calcium carbonate + sulphuric acid forms: Sodium nitrate calcium sulphate
Practical with copper sulphate What is the acid in our practical? dilute sulphuric acid What is the alkali in our practical? Copper oxide What is the name of the salt? Copper sulphate
